I know these are long overdue. These were recordings from SXSW.
First of all, I'm not very happy with the audio quality, I was recording it using a built-in mic on the recorder. On retrospect, I should have bought along a professional mic and plug it into the input. So apology for the poor audio once again.
THE MAY FIRE

I talked to: Catty, El Pipe, Johnny (missing is Rob, who wandered off).
This audio is pretty poor, you can hear another band doing soundcheck in the background as we quickly got the band to talk about how the name came about and how Johnny Beane joined them, when their original guitarist left.
At of the time, they were looking to write a full length album, since they have released three EPs.
SOLID GOLD

I talked to: Zach, Matt, and Adam (not sure what happened to their drummer).
This was conducted in an open restaurant (thank god for spellcheck, I can never spell that stupid word), and at one point in the interview, the waiter came and took our orders (we ordered coffee & tea). Also the first question came via text and it was "What's up with those mustaches?".
As I have previously mentioned, these guys are cool and don't really take themselves too seriously.
They will be playing the ever-popular "Rock the Garden" show this year with The Decemberists. Everyone I know is going to this show!
Next week: two more shows!

If you notice, the interviews were quick & dirty. There were some questions/answers that I threw out, mostly because they were uninteresting or poor audio. 07/31/09 The Zoo w/ the pines and jeremy messersmith minnesota zoo
